We love going to Bowral for the day. There are so many places to visit and many cafes and places to eat and socialise. We often meet up with my sister who lives on the South Coast and we from Sydney - it is like a halfway point. We have discovered the Harrys on Green Lane which has become our...

I have my mother's set of six from home. They were a wedding gift from one of her good friends sixty-nine years ago. We have used them in our home since my mother passed away and we are still using them today. When I was a kid everyone had these mugs.

Going to try this looks easy to do. Thank you for posting this.

Mine was not working last night (very frustrating) but back working this morning. Telstra given its costs to customers, should have a backup alternative as so many people and businesses are affected by this.

My grandmother had one of these exactly the same in the sunroom. It is where she kept all of her crockery. She had updated the handles though. This photo has brought back happy memories of visiting my grandmother in another time in the past when life was so much simpler.

Good to see recycling. The first time I used the new basket in Woolworths I lost my balance with the single handle not being as stable as the two handles, and fell throwing the few items in it everywhere. There were lots of people around who came to help. Embarrassing movement! It was...

Being with my little dog - a two year old Pomeranian. He is three kg and a sweet little man who is very active.

Cutting hours is a little bit better than closing altogether, at least there is still an operating bank there, than none at all.

I like to choose and have cut up for me. The new self service packaged goods provide issues in that they are very thinly cut and you have to buy a certain quantity in the pack. Sometimes I used to buy two frankfurts to make two hot dogs for lunch, now I have to buy a pack of twelve and waste...

My parents were in a very good nursing home that was run by a family who created the nursing home because they could not find one that suited their parents' needs. It was a great place and we did not have to worry. They were happy. However, it has been bought out by a big company and now is a...

This is a positive move and change in thinking. Lets hope that a lot more banking service centres open in the future. I think because the banks have abandoned their customers, their customers have abandoned them, and now they are realising this. One can only hope.

I worry about the future. I am a self funded retiree so will have to pay. My problem is that I am the last of the line. We did not have children so it is just us left now. I do not know how we will navigate the system, that is so confusing. I also fear of being conned, ripped off and taken...

Happy Birthday!!!

Gosh you are also describing my experiences. Coles Cafeteria was a special school holiday treat as a family, dress up go to the city on the train (red rattler) shopping and Coles for lunch.

This man (Mr Trump) is causing so much disruption world wide. It is amazing how so much damage this one person is able to do and inflict on the world.
